Manhattan Eye & Ear Suture Forceps

4-1/4" (11.0 cm) Castroviejo Titanium Suturing Forceps are a multipurpose tool for a variety of ophthalmologic procedures. The heavy set teeth ensure the firm grasp of tissue or suturing equipment without slippage, while the slightly extended length aids in accessing difficult areas. The forceps are available with a tying platform, designed to grasp both the tissue and suturing equipment without changing instruments. Three different tooth sizes are available depending on surgical preference. Forceps manufactured with a lightweight, titanium alloy body offer advantages for procedures that require delicate precision. They possess greater strength and durability than stainless steel and superior resistance to corrosion, staining and pitting. Titanium forceps are almost half the weight of stainless steel, offering a more tactile feel with minimal fatigue. Finally, blue-colored tint reduces glare and the non-magnetic material resists static buildup.

bayonet-shaped, cross-serrated, 3" (7.5 cm) Botvin Iris Forceps are a useful tool in ophthalmologic procedures involving repair of the iris following trauma. The forceps are designed to handle the long needle necessary for iris suturing, commonly used with 10-0 polypropelene or 4-0 silk sutures. The bayonet style design is meant to minimize surgical obstruction during the operation.

4" (10.2 cm) Arruga Capsule Forceps are a commonly used tool in cataract procedures. The forceps feature delicate spoon shaped ends used for cupping and extracting capsular fragments or commonly used for removing the nuclei fragments of the native lens.

very delicate narrow, smooth jaws, angled 45 degrees, 4-1/2" (11.5 cm)  Bishop-Harmon Tissue Forceps are a commonly used tool in a variety of ophthalmologic procedures. The forceps are designed for grasping delicate tissue in a small surgical field. Three finger holes on the handle allow the surgeon to adjust his or her grip during the procedure as desired. The forceps are available in straight or curved styles depending on surgical preference.
